2. General Information

Protecting your personal data is important to me. This privacy policy explains what data is collected when you visit this website and how it is used, in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

3. Hosting (Squarespace)

This website is hosted by Squarespace, Inc., 225 Varick Street, New York, NY 10014, USA. Squarespace processes technical data on my behalf to operate and deliver the website (e.g., server log files including IP address, browser type, referring URL, date and time of access).

As Squarespace is based in the USA, some data may be transferred outside the EU/EEA. Squarespace participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or relies on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as a safeguard for such transfers. For details, see Squarespace's own privacy policy: https://www.squarespace.com/privacy

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in reliable, secure website operation).

4. Cookies

Squarespace may set certain cookies necessary for the website's basic functionality (e.g., load balancing, security). This site does not use cookies for advertising or third-party tracking/analytics. For a full list of cookies Squarespace may set, see: https://www.squarespace.com/cookie-policy

5. Contact Form

This website uses Squarespace's built-in contact form. When you submit the form, the information you provide (e.g., name, email address, message content) is transmitted via Squarespace's infrastructure and forwarded to my email address in order to process your inquiry and respond to it. This data is not shared with any other third parties.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent, since you actively submit the form) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to inquiries).

Submitted form data is deleted once your inquiry has been fully resolved, unless there is a legal obligation to retain it.

6. Email Contact

If you contact me directly by email, your message (including your email address and any personal data included) will be stored to process and respond to your inquiry. This data will not be shared with third parties.

7. No Advertising or Third-Party Embeds

This website does not display advertising and does not embed third-party content (e.g., social media plugins, external fonts, maps) beyond what is required for Squarespace's core hosting functionality.
